Best Gifts For Canoeists

Keeping your gear dry when canoeing can be a challenge. So this excellent floating dry bag makes a great gift – one that you know will be used over and over again.

It is made from tough 500-D PVC to protect its content from the elements, with watertight, welded seams and a roll-down top.

It also has some really great features lacking in inferior bags!

These include a convenient outer slip pocket where you can store small items and easily access them in a hurry, plus a reflective trim around the pocket zipper. Not only does this make you visible to others, but it also makes it easier to spot the bag if it ever falls overboard.

Finally, it features an adjustable and removable shoulder strap that you can attach to a canoe so the bag is always at hand.

Available in three different sizes – 5L (1.3 gals), 10L (2.6 gals), and 20L (5.3 gals) – this durable dry bag comes in a wide range of colors and patterns to suit all tastes.

FARWATER Canoe Anchor Grip

Practical items make great gifts for canoeists and this useful grip anchor is an excellent example.

More convenient than a traditional weighted anchor, this system quickly secures the canoe to any solid object or even shoreline debris.

It holds fast in rough conditions – in fact, the more the wind or current pulls on the boat, the tighter the anchor’s grip becomes. And it’s ideal for those who like to fish because there is no loud splash to stir up the mud and disturb the habitat.

Although it weighs just 8 oz (237 mL), this is a tough anchor made from rust-resistant powder-coated steel.

It is made from non-corroding engineering polymers and has stainless steel reinforced axles, so it is rugged enough to cope with all sorts of terrain.

Requiring no tools to assemble and ready to use in seconds, the cart has puncture-free wheels with high grip rubber tread. This means that flat tires are a thing of the past and this is a cart you can rely on.

The adjustable rubberized pads fit most hull sizes and an adjustable kickstand is included.

Canoe Paddles

These beautiful wooden canoe paddles make a lovely gift and an ideal alternative to aluminum or plastic.

With strong handles and weighing just 26 ounces (0.8 L), they have a layer of waterproof paint on the surface to protect them from damage and wear.

The manufacturers have carried out tests to assess how much pressure they are capable of withstanding. With results showing that they can support the weight of a man weighing 197 lbs (89 kg) standing on them, it’s pretty safe to say that these paddles are built to last!
